Dan and James recorded a live episode on open publishing as part of the Open Publishing Fest. They also ran a survey (from start to finish) during the course of the episode on the public's perception of open scientific publishing and discuss the results.
Here are more stuff they covered, plus links!

Some university have set up a 'data office', to which data requests are sent to (instead of the author). Is this a good idea?
Are people really doing that many coronavirus studies?
